nl, nonl 

The nl and nonl routines are used to enable and disable newline control.

Syntax 

     #include <curses.h>

     int nl();
     int nonl();

Return Values 

OK                    Successful completion.

ERR                   An error occurred.

Description 

The nl() routine enables the handling of newlines.  The nl() routine
converts newline into carriage return and line feed on output and
converts carriage return into newline on input.  The nonl() routine
disables the handling of newlines.

The handling of newlines is initially enabled.  Disabling the handling of
newlines results in faster cursor motion since CURSES can use the
line-feed capability more efficiently.
